I'll bite...




Here's a cool counter display, mounted on a plastic frame.

Never figure when these came out as I have CIL and Dominion ammo in many calibers they don't list on them . 300 HH and 375 for example.

I'm thinking the original poster / flyer must have been immediately post-war / pre-1950, given the absence of .222 Remington, .308 Winchester or any of the belted magnum cartridges. That, plus they were not D.C.Co., which ended in 1947. There's no 57 Snider listed so it's post 1942. So, 1943, although essentially no civilian ammunition was produced during the war, so actually 1945 to 1949 would be my guess.

My hat off to you, sir. Just when I thought I jammed information into an already packed brain, you come along and make me feel like I know nothing!

Thank you Jim, well maybe not; now I'll have to buy myself a bigger hat!

When I first saw this, I thought it was a crusty old mine boss lighting the fuse of a stick of powder with his stogie!

Who says the .30-06 is more powerful than the .303?
